Use the data in the list to complete the line plot below.

Answer 1

To create a line plot based on the given list of candy weights, we'll first need to organize the weights and then represent them visually.

Step 1: Organize the data

The data provided is:

Weights:
1, 1, 2, 1, 1, 4, 2, 1, 2, 1, 1, 2, 1, 3, 4, 1, 1, 4, 1, 1, 2, 2, 1, 1, 2

Step 2: Count the occurrences of each weight

• Weight 1: 13 occurrences
• Weight 2: 7 occurrences
• Weight 3: 1 occurrence
• Weight 4: 4 occurrences

Step 3: Create the line plot

Now, we can create the line plot. Below is a textual representation of what your line plot will look like:

Weights
   |
4  |               x
   |               x
3  |         x
   |
2  |     x   x   x
   |     x   x   x
1  | x x x x x x x x x x x x x
   |
   +--------------------------
        1   2   3   4   

Note:

• Each 'x' represents an occurrence of that particular weight.
• You can draw this line plot using graph paper or any plotting tool, marking the x-axis for weights and placing 'x' markers at the appropriate counts per weight.
